Good option for drone purchase for commercial use?
I may be working with a friend who at this point has never used DL and wants to be able to offer the kinds of services that could best be accomplished with DL. I'm pretty happy with my faithful Air2 but he recently had an "incident" with his system and needs to start over. Seems while on a job someone, not happy with drones in general, intentionally ran over his drone with a car. Long story...
In any event, I'm afraid I'm just not up to date with the various options for DL operation out there these days. Money is not necessarily an option (within reason of course!) and I'd appreciate some input as to what might be a good choice for him to consider?
We both have our Part 107 certs...

The drone that DJI is leaning into the most, at least from an SDK standpoint, is the M3E.
Have to second the M3E...depending on what you want to do. If you are looking to do mapping and photo data collection it is excellent. However, if you are looking to capture video with different color profiles, frame rates, etc. then the Air2S is probably the best bet since it is one of the few recent drones that offers good video options and an SDK.
Thanks much Jim & Barry. We have a meeting later this week to go over the possibilities. Appreciate the input.
